Galen!!! Yes, he saved my life, on my Classical Studies final one of the questions was "Who was the doctor from Pergamum who worked with the 4 humors, etc etc." I was like Galen!!!!!! (I had to resist the urge to add exclamation points and smiley faces, lol).

I knew Galen of Eddis was awesome, but all that, too? <3 I really do like him.

I like him too, but I get frequent headaches, and I have low blood pressure; I'm not sure about the whole blood-letting thing. Hmmm...

Yay! I knew about That Other Galen, but thanks for the article.

And every time I read the word "cauterize," I think of ... you know. Maybe if Galen had been in Attolia to help (totally unrealistic "what if") he would have done his little ligation thingy.
